Got a whole bunch of maps laid out (three overworlds (one of which is a boss fight) and the third dungeon), that construct boss fight I wanted, a weird storytelling blockade like I've seen in Pokemon from time to time, a touch of existentialism, and a direct reference to one of my other games. Now that I'm done with the other jam and my week's college homework, I got a lot done.
Combat is beating the crap out of me, though, so I seriously need to rebalance everything.
I was starting to lose interest in RPG Maker, but its coming back. I'm considering picking up some of the sci-fi tilesets for future games I may make with it.
